Ok, I'm on the same page, now.

I'll probably just stick to my "look, but never touch in Book View" rule. It's become ingrained over time. My use of entities is almost non-existent these days (with the exception of nbsp), but I'd still give up the ability to edit in WYSIWYG mode in a heartbeat (considering it's something I've trained myself to never do anyway) if it made this (and other issues) go away and allowed more flexibilty to mix & match chars/named- numeric-entities. I'd be perfectly OK with the Preview Pane, or the Open With feature (or just loading the thing in ADE) when I wanted to check how something rendered.

In all seriousness ... in your opinion, how involved would a flat-out Book View-ectomy be? Is it feasible, or is everything just too intimately entwined?
